Haywire

If there was ever a time for you take one of my movie reviews seriously, let it be this one...

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME!!!!!!

I don't think I've ever seen a movie where the main dialogue was just a bunch of grunting from fight scenes. The main actress can definitely kick some butt, but she also is (or used to be) a MMA fighter.

Not much else to say about this movie...this definitely goes into the category of never watching again along with The Informant and Ghost Rider.

Little Girl Burp Cloths

As promised...here's what I sent along with the cute safety pin card. How adorable are these embroidered burp cloths?!?! My friend Elizabeth's mom made these and I couldn't be happier with how they turned out!

I tied them with matching ribbons and as a bonus gift the ribbon could be used as a hair tie later...ha ha

The last little part of the baby gift was packaging them into a cute little pink bucket that I painted with the baby's name.

I can't wait for more friends or family to have babies so I can get more of these made...and don't worry I'll share the cuteness with you he he he

Baby Girl Safety Pin Card

I made this card for an old roommate of mine who is having a baby girl in March! I busted out my Cricut machine and the Wild Card cartridge. It had been so long since I made a card and envelope using my machine that I forgot how much fun it is to see everything come together. So cute!!

Check back tomorrow to see what I sent along with the card!

Safe House

This was a pretty okay movie. It was a little slow at times, but I would still give it a B. Denzel definitely still has what it takes to carry a movie and Ryan Reynolds wasn't bad either (he definitely got his butt kicked, but took it like a man).

This was yet another movie about corruption in governments all over the World. I like these kinds of movies because I like to try and figure out who the bad guys are before they are revealed to the audience.

Do you like movies where you try and figure out who the bad guys are before they are revealed?

A Dozen minus Two

Did you tell your boyfriend, fiance or husband not to get you flowers this Valentine's day?!?! Did he listen??? Yeah...mine didn't either, but I was one happy girl when I found these by my door! I guess I really did want flowers after all...ha ha.

So while my mom and I were looking at them I noticed that there were only 10...odd number right?!?! I think each of us counted them four times to make sure we weren't crazy. So after thanking my super sweet and thoughtful guy I had to ask "Soooo how many flowers did you order?" Turns out he did order 12, but only 10 arrived. Now, I don't know if it was the florist's fault or the little hooligans runnin' around the neighborhood, but I do know 2 magically weren't in the vase (I should be a dectective...ha ha).  All that aside they are really pretty yellow, pink and whiteish/pinkish flowers!

Don't you just love black and white pictures of flowers?!?! I do!! This wraps up my week of valentines posts. Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Gifts That'll Make You Sing

Since I won't get to exchange gifts with my Valentine until this weekend, I thought I would go ahead and show y'all how I wrapped them. Everything I got him is really silly so I figured I would try to match each gift with a song...maybe even change a word or two. Every time I look at (or better yet think about) the gifts I start singing the songs in my head...ha ha

The one you can't see says "I'm blue dabba dee daba da-ee"...please tell me someone else besides me remembers that song?!?!

My favorite one is the "I'm {toasty} and I know it"...which brings me to the next item on my list...I can't stop laughing at this commercial. To me it's just as good as those chevy santa commercials...

"Be Mine" Cupcakes

I made these out of my cupcake book. They were decorated a little different in the book and also had red hots mixed into the batter, but I left the red hots out after taking a vote of people who like them...ha ha. These are white cupcakes with poured fondant icing (basically powdered sugar icing).

In order to make sure the icing doesn't overflow on the cupcakes you only fill the cupcake mold 1/3 of the way...

All decorated and ready to be devoured by my work peeps...

Yay for keeping up with my 12 things in 2012...2nd (ok well technically 3rd) cupcakes of the year!!

Did anyone else make any special treats for Valentine's day?!?!
